Gathered around as my Dad reads his new iBooks autobiography
Anyone who knows my dad knows that he tells stories. Dad is a scientist, and is generally fairly quiet. Unless he's teaching you something or telling you a story. And we never get tired of hearing his stories! Some time ago I got it into my head that I needed to record Dad telling his stories. So over about a year I've been gathering the family together, and one by one we ask him to tell our favorite stories while I roll the camera. The result is a treasure. I embedded all of his videos and combined them with his 20-page autobiography in an iBook to give to Dad for his 70th birthday earlier this month.
Here's my favorite story. Dad didn't want to tell it but he humored me. The person laughing the hardest? Totally me. :)
